- A demonstration of the DJI Pocket 3 video camera at night in city streets.
Normal, Low Light Mode + Manual Settings
0:00 Normal Mode and Auto Settings
3:33 Low Light Mode and Auto Settings
6:53 Low Light Mode and ISO 800 and 1/100 Shutter Speed
12:28 Low Light Mode and ISO 1600 and 1/100 Shutter Speed
If you are at 24/25 I/s, you must try to be at 1/50 shutter speed. The result will be more natural (with movement blur). It is the « 180° angle rule »
Yeah, if you want rules. However i suggest since there are entire blockbuster films in different frame rates perhaps just critique the visuals themselves without rules. Cameras these days are capable of stunning captures and there may be cases for VFX where you almost have to shoot higher and add blur in post to taste ... trackers, masks and work better with crisp edges. this is perfect test footage.
to reduce bouncing movement you need 4th axis stabilizer or ninja walk. Or use a selfie stick, the extended position away from your body and hand will minimize the unwanted bounce movement @@yingmanbogae8187
@@yingmanbogae8187 More than likely the operator. You still have to walk smooth with any gimbal. Cant have heavy feet
regular 3-axis gimbal cannot stable vertical movement@@yingmanbogae8187
@@yingmanbogae8187 this is a 3 axis stab. You need to « ninja walk » to avoid the vertical bouncing. There is a lot of videos on the subject.
Thanks for the footage, I ordered mine last night. I love that the auto settings are overexposed but still look fairly clear allowing me to bring the exposure down in post for some decent shots. I'll generally shoot in 50/60fps dependant so I can slow it down when needed but I can't wait to add this camera to my video arsenal.
I agree, if the camera can shoot at 60fps then im shooting 60fps ONLY.....anything less than 60fps leaves too much motion blur.
I like the Low light shot. Very Clear …Specialy in the Dark it always bright.. ❤
Looks great, man. Waiting on mine in the mail. Thanks or the straightforward approach.
Thank you for the footage. I just reordered it. ❤
Looks quite good. Thanks for filming.
thanks for the most realistic test
Finally someone did the night test of this camera. Thanks! Its not better than P2 in low light from what i see
right? wth
Thanks, this is exactly what I'm looking for
So clear night❤❤❤
That looks lovely
Good quality!!
to get even better result you could have easily gone with shutter speed of 1/60 (since you were filming on 25fps).
& once your SS is around 1/60. You could have gone lower the ISO at-least half way down.
but in reality you did great job with this review! Hard work showing 👏👏👏
Doing my research late at night, comparing 2 and 3. Thought I was watching Pocket 2 footage until the very end. "I'm getting the 2 instead, it's good enough for me!". Time for bed.
Excellent

Can someone tell me why is it that you can see constant foot steps movement in this footage? I thought the gimbal is supposed to help cancel it out? Exposure and image quality is impressive though. Just the bumping up and down movement that irritates me a little.
You would need a 4 axis gimbal to eliminate up and down movement
If you hold the camera out at an angle, instead of holding it straight up and down, it would probably help (as it does with pocket 2).
shouldnt have to@@user82938
@@user82938 Ah, that make sense. Thank you very much
@@Dom-hl1wmthank you very much. I did some more research . You are right.
This looks fking good!
low light has always been the achille's heel with DJI cameras. This generation it seems their main focus is for both cameras (action and pocket) to have good low light performance
action 2 is crap in low light
When you are walking, are you holding the camera straight up and down? I always found the pocket 2 had less bounce if I held it out at an angle, so the gimbal has some room to work.
He could take out a lot of that bobbing, if he angled the body and also rolled his feet, that should be able to just float.
Thanks. The manual setting samples looked smoother than the slightly jittery auto samples.
The way he is walking is the only reason for bouncing. the settings have no influence
it shouldnt be bouncing at all@@photographiezautrement
I am positively surprised of the visual qualitiy. The blacks are convincing, almost no grain. The bouncing vertically up and down while walking could be reduced by an additional gimbal suited for that camera. Thank you for the test.
May I suggest you work on smoothing out your walk, but thanks for the test.
Thank you for these great images. I have a question. I heard the cam overheats in about 20 minutes when shooting in 4K/30 (European models only). Can you confirm? Thanks. 🙂
Hi - is there object tracking. Can you touch the screen and move the gimbal and itll fix on a object or product.
Thank you for these test. Which would you say is more accurate to the actual setting? I think the low light mode has too much motion blur. Just not my preference.
the best
Very nice: I've been in Glasgow a couple of times thirty years ago... Good memories!!!
1-are the clips SOOC or post processed (colour grading, denoise...)?
2-what about resistance to flickering, with all those electrici lights? Had you any problem with aperture speed different form 1/50 or 1/100s?
3-as in your memory, the real light intensity was closer to what we see in automatic modes or when you expose at 1/100s and 800/1600 ISO?
Thanks for your video!!!
It's got a terrible up down movement, I thought it was gimble steady? My iPhone is just as good?
try to not use the joystick to change the pan angle. Simply turn the camera into the direction you want. It will be more natural (tilt lock mode)
Agree! Panning with the direction button seems not smooth.. 👍🏼
the image quality is very good, very minimal noise. Btw is there no software vertical (walking) stabilization inside the osmo?
Something slightly jarring is going on between the frame rate and shutter speed here. I know some people don't agree with it, but the 180 rule is a good starting point, at least. So if you are shooting at 25FPS, try a shutter speed of 1/50. It's all subjective, but it might help smooth things out a bit. Also, when working in low light it's really important to try to keep things as stable as possible.. It's not natural to do so, but if you try to walk with less bounce, it can have a huge impact on the low light performance of any camera. There are techniques both in how you walk, and how you hold the gimbal that can help mitigate the bobbing motion on the vertical axis.. Nice examples of the low light performance though, thank you!
This is great thank you so much
Were you just using internal sound or the DJI mics?
The audio is straight from the camera
Nice - thank you!
@@playeryin1831
For low light in action (motion) 50 fps will be much better.
the only thing bugging me only the shake at the corner. like on the boat... any tips for it?
Interesting, did the audio came directly from the Pocket 3? or you were using external binaural microphone? nevertheless enjoyed the videos so much, here come +1 sub
The audio is straight from the camera. Default settings, stereo, all directions.
This is great, thank you. Would you feel inclined to post up some sample low light footage with the sharpness and denoise dialled down to -2?
I'll give this a try tonight. Hopefully.
@@playeryin1831 thank you, much appreciated. Do keep us posted 🙏
Ah, just seen you've posted. Thank you!
Much better than Gopro.
25fps and shutter speed 1/50 should have been apt....isnt it???
Great Test Video... But
What Gimbal Settings you have it...
I tis showing.. ALL YOUR BOUNCING STEPS???
I use tilt locked mode
Hi. Thanks for the low light test review.
One question , I noticed that there is the bouncy effect whenever you walk although pocket 3 is built with a good gimbal.
What could be the root cause of that bounce please?
same.. my pocket 2 is way better wth is that and the gimble head is bigger so i thought it would have inproved.
Root cause is that gimbals typically do not work on the vertical axis. The pocket 3 is a 3 axis gimbal, meaning that it works on the pan (left to right), the tilt (up and down) and roll (left and right "tilt").. It does not have any means of mitigating the vertical up and down motion, which is normal for most gimbals. There are techniques that can be applied to both the walk and the grip angle that can help reduce the motion. Walking heel to toe with short and narrow strides is my preferred method. Holding the device at a flatter angle, rather that pointing straight up will also allow the gimbal to use some of the tilt motion to compensate the bob.
Excellent video and camera. I'm waiting mine in 1/11. Please tell me. Why not in manual mode 1/50 with 25 FPS and 400 iso?
good idea but i would use 1/50 with 50fps and iso 400
@@Sambo111@Sambo111 I mentioned this to you because you use 25fps. That's why. Of course 50fps and 1/50 shutter it's not correct. I'm curious how it would be 25fps - 1/50 - iso 400.
I think that because I'm walking there's more movement than if I was standing still so 4x the shutter speed is better. If you look at my 4K50fps low light video. I used 50fps 1/100 for that for the second test. And you can compare it with my "best night settings" video to see the 1/200 results
@@playeryin1831I watch all of your videos. Excellent work 👏🏻👏🏻
This is the first video I've seen about Pocket 3 that isn't stabilized. How come? What are you doing wrong? This is a gimbal and your images look like they were poorly shot handheld.
yahooo~ Wow-really professional channel! see you soon! :))
The other footage I see from the Pocket 3 does not have the up n down bobbing that this one has. I don't think it is caused by the new Pocket 3, it seems to be a regularly timed back n forth n up n down heavy footed rhythmic motion that the new camera operator does not seem to know they are doing. I wonder why I don't see this particular rhythmic bobbing motion in the other Pocket 3 video's?
Still getting wavy footage while walking?
this vs iphone 15 pro log profiles which one better?
You can't easily compare the two.
The Pocket 3's is not a true log profile, but rather a flat color profile that is good for increasing dynamic range and doing some color grading.
The log profile of the iPhone 15 is one of the best on the market (even compared to expensive cine cameras) and is compatible with important professional standards like ACES. And in combination with ProRes you can do more complex color grading.
botayet
It seems to me that the stabilizer is not working well
If only it had an optical zoom then it would be perfect. My next upgrade nevertheless..
Nice honest Video, thank you. The lowlight seems quite impressive, but the stabilisation when you're actually moving is like a yo-yo, I was going to buy the camera until I saw your real video.
A very good video; thanks but bouncing is very bad; can you avoid it during the shoot out physically or electronically in the editing phase afterwards?
With slower and careful walking, meaning with practice, things can get much better. In post, the left to right or right to left movements will have great chances of being fixed. Walking forward shots are way trickier. Adding weight to the hand holding the pocket can reduce the bouncing. You can try shooting some videos with a phone while walking and try the so called ninja walk and then add stab in post. If the result is unusable this way, it will only be a bit better with the pocket, since there is no vertical axis stab in it.
I didn't concentrate on reducing the bouncing at the time. It certainly could be improved in post or by walking more carefully.
Should i pick 25 or 30 fps when recording?
Is there any rule on that
I used 25fps because I'm in the UK and I wanted to avoid flickering. Flickering is when lights in the video appear to be flashing on and off. In the UK the electricity runs at 50Hz. You have to use a multiple of 50 to avoid flickering. In the US the electricity runs at 60Hz so you have to use a multiple of 60, so 30fps is ok. This camera actually has anti-flickering settings though. So you could probably set that to the appropriate setting (50Hz or 60Hz) and then you could use either 25fps or 30fps. I haven't tried using the anti-flickering settings though but I guess it should work.
30fps looks a bit more fluid and life-like. 24fps or 25fps is what they traditionally use in films.
thanks for the info@@playeryin1831
Hay que andar de una forma muy concreta cuando se lleva estabilizador
I didn't know they had Five Guys in Ireland.. or wherever he is ..
Remarkable NPC's in this open world game
hello
the walking effect is very important ,no???
Looks impressive. Couldn't see any noise.
😍👍👍👍
Why is this so bouncy?
Is that a mode you are trying or?
I was checking to buy this thinking there will be a smooth video.
I wasn't concentrating on reducing the bouncing of the video. I'm sure it could have been better if I ninja walked etc.
Is t just me or does osmo pocket gimbal videos seem a bit bouncy when we walk. Is it just how it is or can we change the gimbal settings to make it more smooth when we walk? I'm probably being a little ocd. Great video btw thanks
**the guys legs are a bit bouncy.
@@DanLiveOnUTube its "BOUNCY LEG GUY"
I just watched a city walk through and it was very smooth. I asked how, and he said technique, you do need to mitigate for your footsteps.
@@markshirley01 👍👍
You have to keep the camera from moving up and down. There are gadgets to do that. Steadycam -type
Where is that? City?
By the way, which city is this?
Glasgow
@@markshirley01 ahh thanks 🙌
Is that handheld?
Yes handheld but it has its own mechanical gimbal built in
@@playeryin1831 I think the Action 4 has much smoother footage.
nice video. hope i can get one for my channel..wish me luck 🙏
Лучше бы они четвëртую ось в стабилизатор добавили, чтобы колебаний от шагов небыло видно. Всë остальное и так было хорошо.
Повороты камерой теперь выглядят странно, не плавно, а дëрганно, резко, как буд-то через интернет управляешь уличной веб-камерой на другом континенте. Это полностью лишает отснятое видео какой-либо кинематографичности, - дëрганные рыскания камерой вправо-влево, - враг плавной кинематографичной картинки.
very bumpy

Love this footage as a snapshot of London in 2023, imagine the same footage in the same quality from 1964, 1974, 1984!
Dont think this was London judging by the people on the street.
It's Glasgow, judging by the great big sign that read "Glasgow Central Station"
FOR ME IS DARK ALL THIS VIDEO , 1 INC SENSOR ?!!!!!!
Thanks for this real world footage. It’s a great little camera but it supports my belief held for some time now that unless you go to at least APSC, it’s not really worth going to a stand alone camera over the latest iPhone. Ideally full frame camera, as they are getting smaller, cheaper and are on another level albeit even the cheapest with a kit lens is still twice the price. I’d get one of these DJI Pockets over, say, a ZV1 mark 1 or 2 though (had the former). For example, here’s a link to some iPhone 15 night time footage, I think the DJI is a bit better maybe but not much? ua-cam.com/video/1N3e3BjTgH4/v-deo.htmlsi=BSQOh5P8H5_KqKlA
This has way better quality than iPhone, its not so much about the sensor size but about the pixel size. This also does not need to crop in to the sensor, because it has gimbal stabilization.
If you've got a top of the range iPhone you probably don't need a pocket 3.
In fact if you are mostly filming during the daytime you are probably just as well using a DJI Action 4: Better colours, better stability, better fov, and no Bokeh.
I don't usually see people making night time vlogs, but I can see people probably making more with a pocket 3.
HORRENDOUS Z AXIS IN 4K .-...!!!
I hope DJI sees this comment ...they had 3 years to sort out the Z axis up down walking movement ....3 years ...!!! absolutely horrendous ...!!! .
I have original POCKET 1 ..... from 2020 ...this new POCKET 3 ....still the same ...better image of course ....but Z axis still HORRENDOUS ...!!! AM KEEPING THE ORIGINAL POCKET 1 ...since this is no improvement for 600 euros combo pack .
Very disappointing from DJI ...Thanks for very demonstrative video .
I am tempted to return the recently bought DJI action 4 for same issue .
Cheeeeerrrsss..!!! Thanks for excellent video ....!!!!
HORRENDOUS ...!!!

much up and down..
where's the stabilization? camera is bouning like crazy!
no stabilization? jumpy video
A city with lights everywhere isnt low light
